TOTTENHAM AND BRENNAN JOHNSON TRANSFER LINKS FULL STORY
According to reports, Tottenham are showing interest in signing Brennan Johnson. Hence, they are preparing a bid for the Forest star. The Spurs are also in contact with the agent of the player. They have received positive sides from the player side to complete the deal. The reports also claim that Daniel Levy is taking care of the negotiations.
Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou has also approved the potential deal. Hence, it looks like Spurs are aiming to make signings in the end of this summer transfer window. They feel that Brennan Johnson will bring his flair and energy to the Spurs squad. However, Spurs manager and hierarchy are aware of the difficulties in the deal.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST HAVE NO INTENTION OF SELLING THEIR STAR PLAYER FOR A LOWER PRICE
According to reports, Tottenham will have to spend more money on Brennan Johnson than they paid for James Maddison. The Spurs managed to sign Maddison for 40 million earlier this summer. However, they will have to spend in excess of 50 million for Johnson. Nottingham Forest are in strong position to handle the deal and potential sale of their best player.
Tottenham will also likely face competition for the signature of Brennan Johnson. Chelsea are also closely monitoring his situation. Hence, Nottingham Forest will certainly try to start a bidding war to get the best price for their star player. However, at the moment neither Spurs nor the Blues have made their first bid or a proposal to the agent of the Nottingham Forest.
Tottenham have made a brilliant start under new manager Ange Postecoglou. Hence, the hierarchy want to give him new signings to avoid any injury problems before the January transfer window. Therefore, it looks like Brennan Johnson negotiations will likely intensify in the next few days.
